The U.S. Commander in Chief has said that he finds the Queen of Pop, Lady Gaga, "intimidating," according to ABC News.

"She was wearing 16-inch heels. She was eight feet tall. It was a little intimidating," President Barack Obama quipped, during the annual Human Rights Campaign gala on Saturday in Washington, D.C.

Addressing a sold-out dinner that organizers said drew 3,100 people, Obama began by joking that last week he had "some productive, bilateral talks with your leader, Lady Gaga."

Obama was referring to when the two had met during a campaign fundraiser for Obama in California.
